At the end of her first year at Fontys, Suzanne was asked to perform the role of Second Witch in the opera Dido and Aeneas , directed by Marja Appün. Suzanne worked closely together with Kai Sven (sorcerer)  and Annelies Deweerdt (first witch).  

As her first opera project, Suzanne participated in the opera Dido and Aeneas, directed by Sybrand van der Werf, as soprano in the choir. The production was performed four times; twice in the Muziekzaal at Fontys Academy of the Arts and twice in the Willem II Toonzaal in Den Bosch.

Late December Suzanne sang the alto solo role of the Spatzenmesse by Mozart together with Ensemble 1685 (Stichting Lambertus Concerten). The choir was conducted by Ton Slegers and accompanied by a small instrumental ensemble. Suzanne got to perform twice, on December 22nd in the Trudokerk (Stiphout) and on December 24th in the Luciakerk (Mierlo-hout) as part of the Christmas Eve Mass. 

On the 21st of May at 15.00, Suzanne performed her Bachelor graduation recital to finalize her Bachelor studies at Fontys Academy of the Arts. She presented her own staged production with music of Massenet, Mahler, Bernstein, Hahn and more. In her final exam recital, Suzanne combined her historical interests with her passion for music and moved the audience with a story about freedom and ownership,  a topic that anyone can understand and relate to.
